Journal of Human Evolution, 1986
Whatever their exact nature (rarely if ever specified), current generalcriteria for distinguishing species in the human fossil record are deficient Moreover, in discussing species distinctions, inter- and intra-species variability are often confused. The decoupling of morphological from taxic change in the evolutionary process means that there can be ...

Paleontology-basis for understanding human aggressiveness

Neurologia Croatica. Supplement, 2004
Background: Paleoanthropological methods help us to comprehend human evolution. They are multidisciplinary. Aim: This study tries to find out the level and type of aggressiveness by analyzing osteological remains of fossil hominids. They were found in the two most important localities with the remains of Pleistocene hominids in Croatia (Krapina and ...
